The pure ignorance of lawmakers wanting to be heard on the record and in the press. As if US citizens just could get deported to anywhere (except Gitmo). The receiving nation would also want a word in the proceedings :blackeye: "But they aren't *real* Americans, y'see, therefore...." - So...

College anti-Israel agitators could be sent to Gaza under new House GOP bill 'I am going to bet that these pro-Hamas supporters wouldn’t last a day, but let’s give them the opportunity,' says Rep Randy Weber A new House Republican bill would send any person charged and convicted for illegal activit...

Can the federal government sue the county for destruction of government property (in the sense that they deprived the government of the investment in value of the training involved)? Nope. People aren’t property. Whether the VA has a subrogation claim for the $400K in life insurance they’ll have to...

I was hoping he'd be more like Tiffany, who supports daddy but not openly or often.

This was actually the reason I considered Tiffany the least objectionable.

Saw the word, and immediately the back of my head spit this old Star Trek title out - The Trouble with Thuribles I believe it was The Thurible with Tribbles. I remember as clearly as if by the Mandela Effect the scene in which the ship chaplain started swinging the thing and the tribbles came pouri...

Cross concludes. Necheles's closing argument decoded: So you're a slut and thus couldn't possibly have been shocked to see a guy in boxers on the bed, so you made it up, right? So transparent. Good luck with that, fuckhead. I'd be forever traumatized seeing dookiepants in boxers and tee I swear my ...

I think the dead worm story only came out because the worm was going to go on record and say "I ain't voting for him."

Israel's "an insanely aggressive offense is our only way to defend ourselves, keep our country intact, and keep every Israeli from harm" mindset is the same mindset we see in our own country's Conservative party, and the same philosophy we deplore when it is used to excuse excesses by law ...

So the Maricopa County Republican twits unanimously voted to censure the justices of the Arizona Supreme Court over Lake and Hamadeh. That'll teach them. YOU GET A CENSURE! AND YOU GET A CENSURE! AND YOU GET A CENSURE! Everyone look under your seats! We've already filled out a censure for you!

So now that it's failed, it's over until/unless she files a new motion, I hope?

We all know, intuitively, that Mike Johnson is just pulling things regarding so-called "illegals" voting in federal elections straight out of his ass. https://twitter.com/ReichlinMelnick/status/1788244442836611194 As a reminder, multiple state governments have engaged in large-scale effor...

This explains so much.

I just learned the New York Times is publishing the trial transcripts in pdf form. This looks to obviate the need to rely on the yeoman services of Shad Riley (85 followers including me) to convert them. Root page for the transcripts: https://www.nytimes.com/article/trump-hush-money-trial-transcrip...

:crying: RIP, Gregg. I am unbelievably sad about this. I avoid this forum because I tend to get weepy about such things but then saw Portia's current profile photo and realized what it had to mean and I said "Oh, no, no no!" And came here to realize that I was not, alas, wrong. RIP, indee...

Riley Gaines' descriptors are on-brand for her, crikey. When her 15 minutes of fame are up, I will not shed a single damn tear.

The quadfectee wasn't nodding off to sleep today, you betcha. He managed to stay awake the whole time. :mrgreen: Trump got a taste of what he did at the Clinton debate. One would think they had some sort of device that could measure every time he wanted to lurch forward in his chair and shout "...

I haven't heard much about this proposal so am off to do research, but my first question would be 'Does this mean they become active-duty Space Force units or a Space National Guard?' and my second question would be 'if the latter, aren't they remaining a National Guard attached to the state and if ...

Some kid who got TFG coffee once or twice.

One of Noem’s claims is that she met Kim Jong Un and implied she stared him down. Now it’s being said that that was an error in the book. The problem with that… Noem recited the audiobook herself! And said she knew about "little tyrants" from her time teaching Sunday School for little kid...

I also speak judge: You are not going to cause a mistrial or a reversal on appeal by making this statement to the press. Good try. I repeat, “You have the constitutional right to testfy in this trial….” Is that similar to Barbara Billingsley speaking jive in Airplane..... https://www.youtube.com/wa...

As always, Bob, we thank you for your literal translations.

Not a SCAdian in the bunch. :rotflmao: or even a history or archaeology major, apparently.

I believe the US Army dropped the requirement that you must have a combat arms MOS and been engaged in combat to get the CIB. You are still required to have been engaged in actual combat, though. I thought they had simply created a distinct Combat Medical Badge and Combat Action Badge for non-infan...

Indeed, I'm all kinds of proud. I tell people that one of my few regrets was that he wasn't still in the UK while I was serving there so I could bring him in as a guest and treat him to a pint at the Embassy's in-house pub.

Mike Lindell's planned announcement for MyDiapers now makes sense.

I just made that up, I note, but at this point, it wouldn't surprise me if it happens.
